HumanNOVA: Photorealistic, Universal and Rapid 3D Human Avatar Modeling from a Single Image

CVPR 2026

In this paper, we present HumanNOVA, a photorealistic, universal, and rapid model for generating 3D human avatars from a single RGB image. Achieving both photorealism and generalization is challenging due to the scarcity of diverse, high-quality 3D human data. To address this, we build a scalable da

VLM-3R: Vision-Language Models Augmented with Instruction-Aligned 3D Reconstruction

CVPR 2026

The rapid advancement of Large Multimodal Models (LMMs) for 2D images and videos has sparked interest in extending these models to 3D scenes, with the goal of human-like visual-spatial intelligence. However, achieving deep spatial understanding comparable to human capabilities remains challenging fo

Uni-Sign: Toward Unified Sign Language Understanding at Scale

ICLR 2025poster

Sign language pre-training has gained increasing attention for its ability to enhance performance across various sign language understanding (SLU) tasks. However, existing methods often suffer from a gap between pre-training and fine-tuning, leading to suboptimal results. To address this, we propose…

Expressive Gaussian Human Avatars from Monocular RGB Video

NeurIPS 2024poster

Nuanced expressiveness, especially through detailed hand and facial expressions, is pivotal for enhancing the realism and vitality of digital human representations. In this work, we aim to learn expressive human avatars from a monocular RGB video; a setting that introduces new challenges in capturin…

BEST: BERT Pre-training for Sign Language Recognition with Coupling Tokenization

AAAI 2023technical

In this work, we are dedicated to leveraging the BERT pre-training success and modeling the domain-specific statistics to fertilize the sign language recognition~(SLR) model. Considering the dominance of hand and body in sign language expression, we organize them as pose triplet units and feed them…

DIRE for Diffusion-Generated Image Detection

ICCV 2023poster

Diffusion models have shown remarkable success in visual synthesis, but have also raised concerns about potential abuse for malicious purposes. In this paper, we seek to build a detector for telling apart real images from diffusion-generated images. We find that existing detectors struggle to detect…

SignBERT: Pre-Training of Hand-Model-Aware Representation for Sign Language Recognition

ICCV 2021poster

Hand gesture serves as a critical role in sign language. Current deep-learning-based sign language recognition (SLR) methods may suffer insufficient interpretability and overfitting due to limited sign data sources. In this paper, we introduce the first self-supervised pre-trainable SignBERT with in…
